1 Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the stomach of the fish, 2 and he said,
"I called out of my distress to the LORD,
And He answered me
I cried for help from the depth of Sheol;
You heard my voice.
3 "For You had cast me into the deep,
Into the heart of the seas,
And the current engulfed me
All Your breakers and billows passed over me.
4 "So I said, 'I have been expelled from Your sight
Nevertheless I will look again toward Your holy temple.'
5 "Water encompassed me to the point of death
The great deep engulfed me,
Weeds were wrapped around my head.
6 "I descended to the roots of the mountains
The earth with its bars was around me forever,
But You have brought up my life from the pit, O LORD my God.
7 "While I was fainting away,
I remembered the LORD,
And my prayer came to You,
Into Your holy temple.
8 "Those who regard vain idols
Forsake their faithfulness,
9 But I will sacrifice to You
With the voice of thanksgiving
That which I have vowed I will pay
Salvation is from the LORD." 10 Then the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah up onto the dry land. This passage relates to the following topic(s): (v. 2)
